The occasion turns into tragedy when 17 people die from cyanide in their drinks. The only surviving links to what might have happened are a cryptic verse that could be the killer's and the physician's bewitching blind daughter, Hisako, the only person spared injury.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut the youth who emerges as the prime suspect commits suicide that October, effectively sealing his guilt while consigning his motives to mystery. The police are convinced that Hisako had a role in the crime, as are many in the town, including the author of a bestselling book about the murders written a decade after the incident, who was herself a childhood friend of Hisako' and a witness to the discovery of the murders. The truth is revealed through a skilful juggling of testimony by different voices: family members, witnesses and neighbours, police investigators, and of course, the mesmerizing Hisako herself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Riku Onda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51718937379097,"sku":"BS-SX0-242245","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/7468\/5209\/files\/9781912242245-HD.jpg?v=1764651547","url":"https:\/\/rebelbookclub.store\/products\/the-aosawa-murders","provider":"Rebel Bookclub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
